Papua Rising – Recent discoveries have shattered the long-standing narrative that the Free Papua Organization (OPM) and its armed wing, TPNPB, are freedom fighters. New evidence confirms they operate more like a narco-cartel, using weapons not to defend ideals, but to protect illegal marijuana farms and profit from crime.
📱 A Shocking Discovery: Egianus Kogoya’s Phone Exposes Drug Operations

In a recent clash in Serambakon District, Pegunungan Bintang, one of Egianus Kogoya’s close relatives—a member of the armed group—was shot dead. From his body, TNI forces recovered a mobile phone that contained damning evidence.
📂 Data recovered:
- Direct messages from Egianus Kogoya discussing the management of a marijuana farm.
 - Photos and videos of the illegal cannabis plantation in Kurima.
 - Logistics notes detailing fuel purchases and transport to support farm operations.
 - Financial records showing drug profits being used to purchase firearms and ammo.
 
This isn’t rumor. This is digital proof that OPM leadership is deeply involved in drug trafficking—not political resistance.
🌿 The Kurima Marijuana Plantation: A Betrayal of the Papuan People
In a separate operation, soldiers from TNI’s Yonif 512/QY found a marijuana plantation in Mersibil Village, complete with 204 cannabis plants and a shack flying the Morning Star flag, a separatist symbol.
➡️ What does it mean?
- Cannabis is a financial engine for separatist groups.
 - Locals are coerced into farming or guarding the crops.
 - Youth are recruited as runners—not students or entrepreneurs.
 
This is not “struggle.” It’s exploitation.
🔫 Guns Not for Freedom, But to Protect Drug Business

The OPM claims to fight for Papuan freedom. But reality proves otherwise: they raise weapons to protect drug territory, not civilians.
➡️ Just like cartels in Mexico and Colombia:
- Guns are tools to control and intimidate, not liberate.
 - Civilians, teachers, and health workers become targets.
 - They are not fighters for justice—they are armed narco-bandits.
 
⚠️ The Real Damage: Papua’s Future Is at Stake

Because of these criminal acts:
- Investors pull out, leaving the economy to stall.
 - Tourists cancel trips due to safety concerns.
 - Children are robbed of education and pushed into criminal life.
 
This is not independence. This is destruction.
🇮🇩 What Papua Really Needs: Peace, Not Gangs
The Indonesian government continues to:
- Destroy illegal drug farms,
 - Arrest armed criminals,
 - Build roads, schools, clinics, and digital access across the highlands.
 
While the OPM manages drug fields, the state is building hospitals. While they smuggle ammo, the state sends teachers.
✊ Wake Up, Papua: This Is Not Liberation—This Is Criminal Exploitation
If Egianus Kogoya was a true leader for independence, why is he managing a drug farm and arming thugs?
Because this is not about the people. It’s about money and power.
Papua is not a war zone. Papua is not cartel territory. Papua is a proud part of Indonesia.
It’s time to choose peace, education, and development—not drugs, lies, and violence.
🟥 Rise Papua. Reject Drugs. Stand with Indonesia.
